WALL HEATER.

Application led December 11, 1922. Serial No. 606,335.

State of Ohio, have invented certain' new e and useful Improvements` inWall Heaters,

of which thev following is a specification.

, The present invention is directed to im-y provements in wall heaters,and has for its primary object to provide a device of this characterwhich can be conveniently secured in an opening in a wall of a room, andwhen in place therein will effectively heat the room.

A furtherobject of the invention is to provide a wall heater soconstructed that a cold air from the room will be compelled to circulatearound the heating unit and will be, projected into the room after beingthoroughly heated by the circulation.

A still further object of the invention is to provide a heaterconstructed in such manner that the danger of the heat therefrom settinglire to the adjacent wall parts will bepositively eliminated.

With these and other objects in view, as will appear as the descriptionproceeds, the invention consists in the novel features of construction,combinations yof elements and arrangements of parts, and hereinafter tobe fully described and pointed out in the appended claim.

In the accompanying drawing:

Figure 1 is a front view of lthe `heater showing it in place, .c

Figure2 is a sectional view on the line 2--2 of Figure 1, and

Figure 3 is a sectional view on the line 3--3 of Figure 1.

Referring to the drawing 1 designates a portion of a wall, and 2 anopening formed therein, said opening being preferably rectangular inshape so as to. receive the 'similar shaped metallic casing 3, saidcasing having secured in its upper end an upwardly and outwardly-inclined plate v4.

Secured to the front edges of the sides 5 of the casing 3 are verticallyextending angle strips 6, said strips having .secured thereto theforward ends of thesides 7 of the casing 8, the back 9 of said casingbeing spaced from the back 10 of the casing 3 so as to provide apassageway 11, there being a top wall 12 secured to the upper edges ofthe sides 7 of the casing 8, said top wall being inclined inthe samedirection asthe plate 4, so as to provide an inclined passage 13, whichhas its outer end opening into the room. 1t will be further observedthat the back wall 9 is inclined downwardly and forwardly, as at 14. Theburner chamber '15 'comprises side walls 16,'and a rear wall 17, thelatter being inclined downwardly and forwardly as at 18there beingmounted in the burner chamber a deiecting plate 19, which is spaced fromthe wall 17 to provide a passageway 20, and since the upper end of theplate 19 is spaced from the top wall 21 of the burner chamber it will beobvious that air can pass from the upper end of the passage 20 and intothe burner chamber.

By arranging the walls 9 and 17 as shown a passage 22 is provided whichcommunicates with a passage 23 formed between the walls 12 and 21.

1t will be observed that the outlet openings of the passages 13 and 23-are spaced from the wall lstructure 24,- and it will be further observedthat Ithe lower ends or the inlet ends of the passages 2O and 22 arespaced above the .bottom wall 25 of the casing 3 so as to provide an airchamber 26.

The casings 3 and 8 are covered with sheets of asbestos 27, as also theburner chamber 15 which will eliminate any possibility of the wallstructure burning. T he `side walls of the casing 8 have secured theretobrackets 28 which serve to Support the front closure 29, said closurehaving upper and lower openings 30 and 31 respectively, which registerwith the passage 13 and with the air chamber 26,`and. also the passage23 so that the cold air may pass through the openings 31 into the airchamber 26 and thence upwardly through the passages'll, 22 and 20,

after which the heated air will be precipiy Atated into the room throughthe openings 30.

1t will be also observed that air passages 32 and 33 are formed upon thesides of the burner chamber 16, and it will be of course obvious thatheated air will pass outwardly from said passages into the room andthrough the openings 34 formed in the closure 29.

Extending transversely in the chamber 16 is a burner 35, which islocated near the upper edge of the plate 19, there being a hingedlymounted door 36 carried by the clotherefrom to also provide airpassages. said 10 sure 29, which can be conveniently raised casinghaving an air chamber at its lower to light the burner 35 when desired.end and common tothe lower ends of all `What is claimed is: passages, aclosure for the casing, and a sup 5 A heater of the class describedcomprising plemental casing having openings therein a casing, asupplemental casing located which register with 'the outlet ends of thel5 therein and spaced therefrom to provide air respective passages.passages, a burner chamber located in the ln testimony whereofI affix mysignature. supplementalA chamber and being spaced HENRY E.
